I don't speak groff, so the following maybe not 100% correct.

In the source file, you see
.Nm talkd

If you apply my change, you see that the sentence is still complete.
Somehow, man manages to work in both ways.

However, when going to the translations, this breaks (but works if the
change is applied). 

So the change does not hurt the original but helps the translation
machinery.

Therefor my request.
